Question:

My question is will these fit trailer beams that are 2 inches wide and 3 inches tall securely? I seen some of the installed pictures on your website and the other thing I was concerned about was how much clearance do you need between the tritoon tube and the frame? I only have 3 inches in front and 4.5 inches in the back.

The CE Smith Roller Style Guide-Ons for Pontoon Boat Trailers part # CE27672 will work out great with your trailer frame size of 2" x 3". As far as the space they take up you will be fine in the back with minimal clearance but the front will be too narrow for these to work.

Intsead you could use the CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons for Boat Trailers part # CE27620 in the front. These will keep your boat going the right direction in the front while the others will be working in the back for you. These are 40" tall but can be cut down to any sixe you would want between 20"-40". Theseare a great solution for the situation youare in with limited spacing.

Check out the videos I have attahed to see exactly how they mount. You are going to love these!!!! Makes getting back on the trailer less of a headache and will make it look like your an old pro!!!!
